2011 has started well. We have had a successful run of events in January, we have high profile events booked and in planning for later in the year and we also found out that we have been nominated as finalists in the SFA National Small Business Awards 2011.
We have been nominated in the category "Outstanding Small Business" and the Finals take place in Trinity College on the 3rd March 2011.
This is the second time we have been nominated, the previous time being in 2007 but we missed out on picking up the Award in the category "for Achievement Innovation and Excellence in Small Business"
Here are all the entrants in our category:
Outstanding Small Business: (up to five employees), sponsored by AIB:
Its been a busy few months here in EuroEvents HQ. Thankfully the first six months of the year has been a busy one and is hopefully a sign of the economy been revived from its coma. Budgets for events are no longer what they used to be but at least clients are doing things again!
The recession has corrected everyones prices which everyone can agree got out of control during the boom times! Clients can now get real value for their money and budgets are going a lot further than they did 2 years ago.
We have been lucky to work with some great clients for the first time and work on some fantastic events such as Superquinns Stand at the Taste of Dublin Festival in the Iveagh Gardens and the Young Social Innovators Showcase in Croke Park to name but a few.
EuroEvents travelled to New Orleans last weekend after being nominated in the Best Event Category and we are extremely proud to annouce that we were the eventual winners after beating stiff competition from California and Germany.
We won the award for our work on the BMW 7 Series Launch on top of Treasury Holdings Building, Alto Vetro.

EuroEvents are extremely proud to announce that we have been nominated for an award at the prestigious Special Events Gala Awards Ceremony in New Orleans, USA.
Last year we successfully launched the new BMW 7 Series on top of a 14 story building in Dublins Grand Canal Dock. It was one of our more technically challenging events and it was because of this that the Judges deemed us worthy of nomination against other entrants from around the world.

Our friends at Leinster Rugby asked us to create the scaryiest House of Horrors possible for the match between Leinster & Cardiff Blues on Halloween night in the RDS.
Inside the House of Horrors there was a dimly lit tunnel walkway with spooky props, characters, smoke, strobe lights and outside there was an evil graveyard.
There were screams, laughs and some tears but most enjoyed the Halloween thriller!
We were responsible for the management of Opel's Dealer Conference which was held in the Heritage Hotel, Killenard recently. Dealers from all over Ireland were in attendance to hear the latest news from Opel Headquarters.
